The ride home yesterday was at a bit of a rushed pace; I was being chased down by giant black thunderclouds. The rain only just caught me as I was riding up my street, so I didn't get soaked. I spent the next half hour watching the torrential rain, watching for lightning, and wondering how I would cook dinner with the power out.

This morning was nice. The rain had washed all the tree pollen away, and the air was fresh. It would have been nice to ride a bit longer...
